5th Avenue Theater Educational Touring Company presents a FREE, family-friendly performance at the REACH Museum Amphitheater of "Songs of the Moon: Fantastical Folktales from Asia" written by Maggie Lee & Annastasia L. Workman.Three Asian American students gather on a crisp autumn evening to decorate their neighborhood park in preparation of the mid-Autumn Harvest Festival celebrating the moon, but they can’t decide which story they should perform for their community: should it be Sun and Moon (a Korean folktale), The Jade Rabbit (a Vietnamese folktale), or The Moon Lady (a Chinese folk tale)? As they journey through each story, they realize the significant role folk tales and oral storytelling hold in bridging intergenerational connections, creating opportunities for social and emotional growth, and preserving cultural heritage.
This one hour-long performance is ideal for children ages 5 through 12 and includes a Q&A session with the actors.
Seating will be outdoors in the amphitheater, weather permitting.
